Start Slowly: Don't feel pressured to run long distances from the beginning. Start with short sessions and gradually increase the duration and intensity.
Warm-up and Stretching: Before going for a run, do a gentle warm-up to prepare your muscles. Then, stretch to avoid injuries.
Suitable Shoes: Invest in a good pair of running shoes. Visit a specialized store to help you find the right ones for your type of footprint.
